Question
A student is studying the following model of DNA.
A strand of DNA that has exons and introns. The exons are labeled as coding regions. The introns are labeled as non-coding regions.
The student learns that some of the non-coding regions have a high concentration of repressors bound to them.
Which question should the student ask to further understand the role of these non-coding regions in gene regulation?

The best question for the student to ask in order to further understand the role of non-coding regions with a high concentration of repressors bound to them in gene regulation is:
**What are the sequences of these non-coding regions, and how do they compare to known repressors?**
This question focuses on the specific sequences of the non-coding regions, which likely play a critical role in their function. Understanding the sequences can provide insight into how these regions may interact with repressors and affect gene expression.
